They do post audio versions later - According to the schedule post the podcast will be split into two parts, the first part will post the Thursday after the original airdate, and the second the following Tues. Unfortunately it's looking like they didn't release the session zero episode as a...

I'm probably about 6months away from wrapping up my current 5e campaign that plays once a month. I've been thinking I might try pitching a different system for the next campaign (fwiw the other things I'm looking at are Shadowdark, Blades in the Dark, and Shadowrun setting adapted to...

I actually had thought of that possibility and almost requested 53. Appreciate the double preview since the intro flavor was also nice to see.

I'm curious to see how the Warcaster turned out - so page 52 please

I managed to track down the source to a New Yorker article behind a paywall, though this link will give access without a subscription. It's actually a pretty nice article that I feel gives a reasonably balanced description of why they're taking the approach they are and other more reasonable...

Biochemist checking in here. We know from what the company has told us that these absolutely do not have anything close to the full genome of a dire wolf. They only mutated 20 positions out of ~12 million differences. Of those 20 changes, only 15 were even changes to something that matched...

Unknown Armies is an interesting system and setting for playing in the modern world with a twist but I don’t hear too many talk about https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/408/atlas-games/category/37453/unknown-armies-third-edition

There was a cortex he-man game being developed but it was cancelled when Fandom sold rights to the Cortex system to Dire Wolf.

I can’t remember where but I did see a comment from one of the art people in wotc say this is what it was showing.

For what it’s worth the mid journey art was in the original but there’s now a version with all the art replaced by commissioned art

Not too surprised, though a bit disappointed to see a la carte going away from old books without notice. I was literally about to pick up Strixhaven spells since there were a few I just realized I'd like to be able to use but wasn't interested in the rest of the book. If I had been given a "last...

Putting somewhat vague description behind this block since even knowing the relevant rule is a bit of a spoiler
